Firstly can someone direct me towards the recommended replacement for Exim $home/.forward files. Specifically, I have fragments such as:if $h_to: CONTAINS "bugtraq" then save "$home/Maildir/.Mailing Lists.BugTraq/" finish endif which I use to filter my e-mail into folders. Am I correct in thinking that maildrop with a per-user $HOME/.mailfilter is the most direct replacement here?
Yes.
I ask as when reading the documentation for Roundcube Webmail there is a note that for Roubecube to work as expected with Courier-IMAP that one needs to prefix folder names by "INBOX." in the configuration file. This seems to suggest that Courier might handle things slightly differently to Dovecot and present a potential compatibility issue; none of the folders in my Maildir have an INBOX prefix.
The server itself should read the maildirs fine. The server's IMAP namespace uses INBOX as the mailbox folder root, with periods as hierarchy delimiter separator. The mailbox $HOME/Maildir/.Sent would be accessible as IMAP mailbox INBOX.Sent, for example.
Of course, you will try this migration first on a test system, and verify that there are no other unexpected surprises, before doing it for real.
